Son muchas las mentiras que decimos a diario, algunas para proteger a otros, otras para protegernos a nosotros mismos. A veces son pequeñas mentiras blancas que parecen inofensivas, pero otras veces pueden tener un impacto significativo en nuestras vidas y en las relaciones con quienes nos rodean. Es importante reflexionar sobre por qué sentimos la necesidad de mentir y cómo podemos ser más honestos y auténticos en nuestra comunicación. La verdad, aunque a veces dolorosa, siempre será el camino más genuino hacia la conexión real con los demás y con nosotros mismos.
( There are many lies we tell every day, some to protect others, others to protect ourselves. Sometimes they are little white lies that seem harmless, but other times they can have a significant impact on our lives and relationships with those around us. It is important to reflect on why we feel the need to lie and how we can be more honest and authentic in our communication. The truth, although sometimes painful, will always be the most genuine path to real connection with others and with ourselves. )
